Got in a good n' proppa Siege! TRUKKOSAURUS came lookin' to crush sum Skimma-Skavs, but got stuck in the fort and the Skavs managed to finally whittle away the Sauraboyz. And I was extra pleased to squeeze in an afternoon game of Stargrave. I started in what looked like a really bad position. Most of the good loot was on the other side of a wall. But Itakura did not count on my Captain's Target Lock ability, enabling my Grenadier and Commando to lob grenades over said wall. Fire in the hole!

Here they come boyz!

Smash! The gate goes down!

Reinforcements come in, skimming over the sand.

A regular scrum of scrap

SaurusNob breaks out, boards the Skav-boss Skimma Bike...

...and drops him in the dust.

A whiteboard really helps when playing GoMo. So many fiddly details.

3 Krak stikkbomb hits, 13 wounds, and TRUKKOSAURUS's diver still did not go Out of Action. But he spent most of the game crawling in the sand wishing he had.

...and now his Head was full of nothing but Inchantments, Quarrels, Battles, Challenges, Wounds, Complaints, Amours, and abundance of Stuff and Impossibilities.....

Thanks for the great games and even better company folks!

Sorry for the degree of Elf Bullshit but in my defence there were Tyranids on the table. I don't even think the full Harlequins treatment would have been enough, but when the minions of the Swarm Lord were making wound rolls like this...

Speaking of Tyranids, how did the final game with Jus' Black Templars end up?

It was great playing against armies I haven’t faced before. It also would have helped if I remember all my new rules 😂

The game against templars timed out, so it ended as a draw. Nids got first turn and laid out some serious hurt, but the templars’ counter punch was really, really painful. It could have gone either way.

Sounds like a great game, and appropriately brutal given the combatants! Looking forward to seeing more of both armies on the table.
